    I use one at times. It does the job. Not anything in an excellent fashion, but overall it works.
    Have Lights? Thank a Lineman!

    The Glock knife has a 6-1/2" blade. I have a Cold Steel Kopis Machete. Yes it's styled after a short sword but I know it's just a brush Machete.

    I have used mine on and off now for five years. Its down to what you intend to want it to do. Its a bit long for small carving on traps, I use a pocket knife with a 3 inch blade most of the time. It hasn't the weight to chop with really well and not brilliant at battoning wood , so its not a wood processing knife! Its design, rather than the Fairburn is more a bayonet, M3 or 4 but thinner blade. They were designed for stabbing the enemy and opening tins! It does get and hold a good edge so cutting 550 and string its is a breeze! That's about all I can say about it! I don't use mine as a woods knife, a Mora will beat it hands down and at half the price so take from that what you will. JMHO. Hope its some help.

    Received the knife yesterday. It's going to need a good sharpening. The saw is useless.
